....or 'tired and emotional'? or simply just exhausted?

Whatever the truth, great fun minis sculpted by TSG

LAF's own Tin Shed Gamer= TSG

Very nice, both sculpts and daubings.

Maybe they were celebrating the fact that their relative ages at the time of the making of Dad's Army virtually eliminated the humiliating prospect of eking out the twilight days of their careers as contestants on 'Strictly Come Dancing' or 'I'm a Celebrity...'?

I'll let the man speak for himself but I was under the impression that 1st Corps sold most of his sculpts.

Fantastic figures brilliantly painted! Very characterful and brought to life with masterful brushwork!

Ordered from 1st Corps. 👍

I am going to use mine as wounded stragglers of the BEF , retreating in France 1940. So much character.

Great sculpts and painting, I like the one leaning over as if he's just been sick the best.
